Operating Instructions
This battery is designed for use in various portable electronic devices. Proper charging and discharging practices are crucial for battery health and safety.
Charging the Battery
- Use a compatible lithium polymer battery charger.
- Ensure the charger's voltage and current settings match the battery's specifications (3.7V nominal, 4.2V full charge).
- The integrated PCM will manage overcharge protection, cutting off charging at 4.25V.
- Avoid overcharging beyond the specified voltage.
Discharging the Battery
- The battery is designed to discharge safely within its operational voltage range.
- The PCM provides over-discharge protection, cutting off discharge at 2.75V to prevent damage.
- Avoid deep discharge below the cut-off voltage, as this can reduce battery lifespan.
- Do not exceed the maximum discharge current of 0.5A.
Maintenance and Storage
Proper maintenance and storage are essential for maximizing the lifespan and performance of your battery.
- Temperature: Store the battery in a cool, dry place, ideally between 0°C and 25°C. Avoid extreme temperatures.
- Charge Level for Storage: For long-term storage, charge the battery to approximately 50% of its capacity (around 3.8V-3.9V). Do not store fully charged or fully discharged.
- Regular Check: If stored for extended periods, check the battery voltage every few months and recharge to 50% if necessary.
- Physical Care: Avoid puncturing, crushing, or exposing the battery to water or fire.
- Disposal: Dispose of depleted or damaged batteries according to local regulations for lithium-ion batteries. Do not dispose of in general waste.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your battery, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Battery not charging | Incorrect charger, faulty connection, or PCM protection activated. | Ensure charger compatibility and proper connection. Check if the battery is deeply discharged (below 2.75V), which might require a specialized charger to reactivate the PCM. |
| Battery not powering device | Battery fully discharged, incorrect polarity, or device issue. | Charge the battery. Verify correct positive/negative connections. Test the device with another known good power source if possible. |
| Short battery life | Frequent deep discharges, high current draw, or aging battery. | Avoid discharging below the PCM cut-off. Ensure device current draw is within battery limits. Battery lifespan naturally decreases over time. |
| Battery swelling or overheating | Overcharging, internal damage, or manufacturing defect. | Immediately discontinue use. Safely remove the battery if possible and dispose of it properly. Do not attempt to charge or use a swollen battery. |
